Description§

Gnome::Gtk4::Frame is a widget that surrounds its child with a decorative frame and an optional label.

If present, the label is drawn inside the top edge of the frame. The horizontal position of the label can be controlled with .set-label-align().

Gnome::Gtk4::Frame clips its child. You can use this to add rounded corners to widgets, but be aware that it also cuts off shadows.

GtkFrame as GtkBuildable§

The Gnome::Gtk4::Frame implementation of the Gnome::Gtk4::R-Buildable interface supports placing a child in the label position by specifying “label” as the “type” attribute of a `<child>` element. A normal content child can be specified without specifying a `<child>` type attribute.

An example of a UI definition fragment with GtkFrame:

CSS nodes§

Gnome::Gtk4::Frame has a main CSS node with name “frame”, which is used to draw the visible border. You can set the appearance of the border using CSS properties like “border-style” on this node.

Accessibility§

Gnome::Gtk4::Frame uses the GTK_ACCESSIBLE_ROLE_GROUP role.
